Tubi Reviews

While the movie selection is okay, especially if you like old movies, which I do, the search for those movies is horrendously tedious. This is basically true for two reasons. 1) The search function searches based upon comparing the search criteria entered against the text description of the movies and tv shows as opposed to using just the title. This causes a long search time and a ridiculous number of hits that aren’t even close to what the user was originally searching for. This means users have to scroll thru an ungodly number of movies just to find the one or two they were looking for. I reported this via email once before, offered a solution but just got blown off. The second reason is the use of passive subliminal techniques like showing the same movies under different categories multiple times in order to get the user to watch them, again making searching for movies and tv shows ridiculously time consuming and boring. Now to be fair, all of the streaming apps have both of these problems which along with the fact that most of them also show a large number of the same shows so lets consider my rating a global 2 star for the entire industry from me! PEACE

You Probably think that Tubi is a scam it’s really not. But I have a problem with the ads. They give out 3 ads. Well I don’t really mind the three ads but there’s like two minutes long each. Which is very annoying because when you’re watching a movie you’re just here “ do you need help with your writing Grammarly can help you😒”. It’s kind annoying and plus they’re like two minutes long. Sometimes if you’re lucky you’ll get two ads. But I really do like Tubi. You don’t have to pay for it, and in general it’s a really good app to watch movies. I love it but I just have a problem with the ads:/. Well I don’t really expect it to be you one second ad, that you just click on close. Well I kind of expected that because it’s free. But it’s two minutes😭. You’re probably like “this girl is always complaining” i’m just complaining because of the scene. For example you are watching AOT and somebody dies what do you hear” Grammarly can help you”😕. Anyways you should really get Tubi it’s a really good app.(it’s like I’m sponsoring Tubi ). You could watch free movies on it. I LOVE it🥰.

I wish ratings/reviews were a thing. For me, that's a big thing missing, especially because of how many indie movies you have - besides benefits to viewers, it can also be useful for cast involved, as they don't always necessarily have many opportunities to get feedback.
It'd also be nice if it was easier to browse for movies - I can select a genre, but after a few dozen scrolls the titles start repeating themselves. Can't really search by keyword either. I'd say that combo equates to a pretty big flaw.
I think Tubi is pretty impressive, but I know it has the potential to be more successful. Frankly, it's already worth money, but since you're giving this much away for free, it seems you could make improvements that people would pay for while still keeping at least the basic features free. If you had the same functionality as shudder (which could also be improved - their search function isn't very good either), I might very well cancel that subscription and pay you instead.

I’ve been using this app for quite a while, probably close to 2 years. I’ve been considering submitted suggestions/requests for series.
However 2 days ago everything went belly up. Most content, either in my Continue Watching list or shows I’ve never watched before simply buffer endlessly. Sometimes they’ll play fine up until the first commercial, and then buffer endlessly. I’ve never had any buffer problem before two days ago. My Wifi is around 112mbps. I’ve sat literally next to my router, rebooted my device, turned wifi off/on, and no other apps have any such problem so this app definitely has an issue on their end needing to be resolved. Updates are when things like this tend to happen. Hopefully they correct it soon, and more importantly, learn how/why the update got messed up so they can strive to avoid doing it over & over with each update. So aside from this app being pretty much unusable for the time being, it is normally a wonderful app.

Tubi is incredible! First I saw it on Instagram when i was going through my stories and saw it on an add. What drew me in was the fact that they had anime on it! And one of the anime's they showed was “Fairy Tail” I know some people don’t like this anime but i watched the first season of it on netflix so I kinda got drawn into it! And Tubi is SO COOL! There’s a bunch of movies and TV series that I’ve always wanted to watch and now i have the chance too! The only thing which i find kinda bothering (I’m so sorry if this offends some anime watchers) the anime’s were in like Japanese or whatever language they were in and the subtitles were the only things that could go to english. I know that sometimes its better if its their natural language but sometimes I just wanna listen to it and watch it instead of having to read the subtitles every time. This is a 4 star because of the languages on the anime’s but everything else is great! I just think this could be a 5 star for me is the anime’s could have an option where it could translate to english! Please at least consider adding an option to do that! Thanks for ready my review! this app is an awesome app!

Obviously I can’t say several things that go against Tubi. It’s amazing Tubi has so many options to pick from that people can watch. I will say, one downfall is I usually get stuck with four ads, two are 15 seconds long and the other two are 30 seconds long. I’m not of fan of waiting a minute and a half to continue watching my show (I don’t know what the ads are like during a movie.) It is only one interruption during each episode as each episode is about 15 ish minutes long. Other than that, it also is a shame that some shows are only played in the language they were made. You don’t have the option to pick and choose which language you prefer to listen to. Instead of hearing what’s going on I have to read subtitles and can’t let my focus waver if I want to understand what is going on. I hope this might help someone have a better understanding, but with and without these downfalls, Tubi is still a great way to access media you can’t easily find elsewhere.

I am so happy I found Tubi! I have been wanting to watch celebrity apprentice and celebrity ghost stories (can you tell I have a type?) and this is the only app or service that offers it for free. Celebrity apprentice I was even willing to buy online per episode but I could not find it anywhere. I don’t have too many negatives the only small thing I could think of is there’s not a huge selection of movies or shows but what do you expect it’s completely free. Another thing that kind of does bugs me a lot is when I leave Tubi and I go back after a while it won’t remember what episode I was last watching so I have to continuously keep looking for the series, season and episode. That’s the one thing that I wish they could fix. The ads get a annoying sometimes but they’re not that constant so it’s not so bad. Over all, extremely happy I found Tubi and look forward to what new selection is added in the future.

Hello,
Tubi is good, but as I just downloaded yesterday, it doesn’t seem very accessable with Apple’s VoiceOver (VO) screen reader. Many of the buttons are labeled and clearly spoken, but some still aren’t. These include the button to the left of the right arrow—whatever that button is—for going to the next geanra of movies. While in playback mode, the orientation’s landscape for easier viewing, I guess. For those of us who are blind/visually impaired, VoiceOver hardly says anything but gives the special tone for starting or ending a list of items. Therefore, I can’t stopp the movie where I’m at/can’t do anything else with it when I’m watching. The last thing … where are any AD titles? This is Audio Described titles—typically from WGBH in Boston but can be other companies as well. I was disappointed to only have the data saver in the settings, nothing for having audio description turned on/think you should add the many AD==audoo described—titles which are available from say Blind Mice Mega Mall, for example.

Awesome selections for any genre to settle what you crave for. Enjoying the old hits one more time along with finding new gems to happily watch again and again! Need something for family viewing? Have it! Craving something a little more intense for your thriller time? They have it covered! Wanting a suspenseful action? Also included! Need a little romance to chill out or a comedy to get some laughs? I enjoy them and many more things to indulge your critic delight! I am a huge movie fan and this covers a wider range than other applications that I have and this is my go to for something that I know others don’t include in their selection. I am just sad when they have to change the availability because of new releases they are going to share. I am hoping that they don’t increase their advertising time because that would lose some stars from me. this app don’t change yourself because you have been a blessing in disguise! They still keep all five stars after starting this review a few months ago

I Really love this app you can always find something to watch..
One of the things I love is their recommendations tailored to the types of movies or shows you watch you don’t have to sit and search and search for something.. Just checkout their recommendations and just about every time you will find something.. They also have a continue watching section for you so you can find what you were watching and pick up right where you left off.. They are always getting in new stuff and also you can find some old favorites as well.. You don’t get bombarded with ads every other minute. Also unlike online there are No redirects ect.. Plus it’s Totally Free.. Being home bound and and not the richest person it Really means A Lot to me.. I use it pretty much every day.. I definitely recommend this app to everyone you won’t regret it.. 😊👍👍
TYSM this app 🥰💕

For being free, Tubi is AMAZING!
If you freak out about a couple of ads in a movie, I advise you to look at the 5 ads in your favorite youtuber’s 15 minute video. They use ads so they can keep movies and shows up! Along with this, they have an excellent selection of movies in my opinion. I just finished watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre myself :3 Now, I’m onto Wayne’s World!! I am going to check out the anime section as well! The reason I got this app in the first place is because I can’t afford any streaming services atm, and I think I’m going to keep Tubi , even if I do get Netflix.
Also, there’s a review on here talking about the comparison of Netflix and this app: Netflix is HUGE, subscription paid, and is a big company overall. this app is FREE, for everyone, has a selection of movies that are quite good for the price of, ya know, free, and is just overall great!
Tysm this app Team <3

Tubi is real. I’ve watched 4 of my favorite older movies since downloading it last night. Out of all of them I believe I saw one ad around 15 seconds long. There is no cost at all and from what I’ve seen there’s a huge selection. This is a legal app so they don’t have the newest stuff but the selection for me is amazing because it’s usually the older movies I’m unable to view elsewhere, I pay for several services to watch movies and television shows and none have the older movies I’ve watched here. I’ve not had any buffering issues or issues starting right back at the same pace I left off as I’ve seen some write. It’s possible people are using older devices and/or have slower WiFi or mobile internet. I also see people say they can’t get an account, I used Facebook to make one and had no issues. I’d highly recommend Tubi!

Update:
After a couple days of watching I’ve found there are more ads, about 30 seconds each but there aren’t tons and it’s still a free app.

I love this app. From the moment I downloaded Tubi , the amount of content it had to offer that differed from so many other streaming services was excellent. Commercials are tolerable unlike how other places have their set up. You can have a watchlist, it’s easy to find everything you’re looking for because they have sorted everything out for you and it’s so smooth. They change out things from time to time and it’s great because they keep on adding amazing movies and shows that make you want to stay tuned in and keep up with what’s new. Thank you this app for everything you’ve given! I’m very appreciative of this platform that you’ve created and the content you’ve chosen to fill it with. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants an app that is free, has great movies for casual viewing or for a movie night. Excellent app.

For others such as myself, who grew up during the 60s and 70s, and remember what normal, actual "free" television was like back then... Tubitv is a wonderful gift!!

Yes..., you do have a few commercial breaks during the movie. But nothing outrageous or, majorly over done. Tubi truly reminds me of what tv was like for us kids during those years!

Another thing that is a great plus for Tubi, is that unlike a LOT of other "free" movie channels/apps Tubitv is that well put together.

The picture is crisp and clean without any distortion that I could find. The sound is very clear and is easy to listen too.....

On other apps I found the pictures were often bad quality. You just couldn't watch them. The sounds/dialogue was often distorted, weaved in and out, and varied from moment to moment.
You would be watching a quiet scene in the movie..., it would cut to a commercial that was so bright, loud, and chaotic compared to everything else. Just awful!!

Tubi brings back the joy of watching television the way it used to be from its early conception and release!!

You cannot beat Tubitv , especially considering it's a free app!
There are quite a few out there...., but very few make the cut to being a truly fine app!!!

Thank you Tubitv!!! It's a pleasure to watch Tubi.

Keep up the great work!! I really enjoy Tubi!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR MOVIE WATCHERS!😉👍

I am surprised to say that in the past months I’ve been an avid Netflix user but come to realize that Netflix can be very expensive and that with Tubi the content is free and good with limited ad breaks my favorite and must watch genre has Ben mostly the sci-fi fantasy selection and I’m loving how Tubi is able to overtime learn from my movie watching experience it creates and gives me recommendations on what to watch based on ma interest I have found a lot of great sci-fi movies and watched them through from beginning to end because of those recommended picks I can tell you right now Tubi does not disappoint very satisfied with it thanks so much developers for creating Tubi I look forward to future content releases and updates it’s been awesome for me and it’s free I highly recommend this app. Movies and Tv in some sense even over Netflix! Happy Watching. >[👁🖥👁]<

I use this app mainly to watch anime series and the series I’ve watched have all been complete with no missing episodes, as well as showing great quality of video and on-point subtitles when necessary.

I would like to suggest however that the series’ original season/episode layouts be used instead of alternative season breaks. For example, the anime “Bleach” has sixteen official seasons, each with a specific title. Conversely, on Tubi the series consists of almost thirty separate seasons, each only denoted by a season number. I think users would find it much easier to search and browse their favorite series if this were to match the official structure, and the titles of each season or arc were added to the user interface. There are many different streaming services available to people everywhere - small changes like this will give people more reason to choose your product over the competition.

Thanks!

I absolutely love this app and cannot stop telling people about it. I’ve always loved some odd movies that were hard to find even when vhs video stores were around but oh how many goodies I’ve found on here! And there have been many not regular released movies by smaller or newer artists that I’d been trying to find to watch, got them too. I’ve explored old & new & am in love. I cannot afford paid anything so this being free is an absolute cherry on top of the ice cream Sunday that is my movie junkie soul. My only “complaint” which is more of a me problem, my watch list is growing as more is added and it’s a mess. Some movies I listed had only part 2 or 3 when I started & now have the original so trying to find them is, well, a me problem, lol. Maybe a way to organize your watch list in the future? But seriously, you are my comfort & joy on a dreary day. Thank you & keep it up!!!!

I like watching movies in there. Especially one movie I more enjoyable. “Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie.”

I know that Jonah (played as Archibald Asparagus) was the prophet of God all over Isreal, but he was so worried that he didn’t want to go to the meanest place, Nineveh. I do not like the sound of that place. So Jonah asked the Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything to set sail in the other direction, but he did a mistake and ended up swallowed by a whale! If he did a terrible mistake, he should get what he deserved, but he knew that he had to get a second chance to go to Nineveh and tell everyone to stop lying, cheating, stealing and slap people with fish. I’m very glad that he did it. My favorite part is when Twippo (who was also archibald asparagus) sang a song about Jonah, after the pirates told the visitors a story.

Maybe, just maybe, if I got so upset about what I’m gonna deserve, I could get a second chance to do the right thing. You could also get a second chance, too.

Tubi is literally above and beyond great, awesome, or good! It has kid shows, and most apps don’t have that because most of them are just, like, “ Oh! This is an adult app I think so we should only put adult shows!” No! But Tubi, thinks about everyone kid, no kid. Adult, no adult. The second reason I love it, it because it has like all the shows! You can search for some too! You can basically watch any show you want to! My favorite show btw, is Chicken Girls. I have almost watched the whole series! But anyway, let’s get back to Tubi . So, Tubi, doesn’t have any cursing in it... nothing! Even in most of the adult shows! But yes, if you are looking for the PERFECT APP to get to watch shows on, kid friendly, or just some adult shows, then you know which one to get! ( psst! This one!) Anyway, if the developers could please put this in the review list, I would love that because i really need to get the message out that this is a GREAT GAME!!! Thank you! Download Now!

Sincerely, Cute&Cool&PopularGirl

this app is my favorite free streaming service. I love their collection of many hard to find films, especially from the 60’s thru 80’s. Lots of Gialli and slashers available. Family stuff too, everything you watched as a kid.
Unrated versions are usually available and picture quality is usually in HD. Some of the older films have never been restored for Blu-ray release, so those films can have lousy picture quality. Standard definition at 360 is better than nothing, when you’re really interested in a film.
The commercial breaks seem to be timed well, not to interrupt scenes, and not as frequent as other services like Peacock/Hulu/VUDU. Unlike Paramount+, you can search by film/TV show title or the actor/director’s name. Often, I’ll preview a film on this app before buying it on iTunes or Blu-ray.
Like all services, their library does rotate, but they give you notice 2 weeks before removing a film.
Love me some this app!

“Post Impact”: *** CGI_ surrealistic and enjoyable. Acting and characterizations_ empathetic and convincing. Plot development_ interest holding with its multilevels and twists and turns (disaster survival, family search, technology mystery and espionage, quest).
“this app”: Only two days of trying the service: **** Impressive interface because of its simplicity and ease-of-use. Collections of interest to me. Wonderfully clear viewing quality. Easy navigation through the film library and with in showings. Pick up from where you left off.
Looking forward to experiencing more of the service, refining my rating and possibly subscribing.
I like to try my products and services and decide how much I like them. If I do like them, I gladly pay a generous and fair price. I don’t like being tracked. I don’t like cookies. I don’t like people with their fingers in my home. It feels very uncomfortable. Your computer knew exactly where to go for my former evaluation. Doesn’t feel good. I’m backing off two stars for this app’s invasiveness. I will consider reevaluating if I see any indication that this app is backing off on invasiveness.

Tubi speaks for itself, it’s really free!
I was so surprised when I realized this and got super excited. I was quick to download it and signing in was super easy. No emails, locations, or birthdays. The process of downloading was over the top. The movies though, I would say a little disappointing. I couldn’t find any movies that I liked or are trending. The only thing I saw that I might watch was Annabelle, but that was it. Some examples of “trending” movies that weren’t featured were Stranger Things, It, Titans, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Euphoria, The Joker, The Dora movie, Hazbin Hotel, and so much more. I hope the makers can add more to the movie section, as I saw barely anything that pleased me. Overall, I was very pleased with the whole process of logging in and getting into Tubi , but I was disappointed at the variety of movies to watch. The only thing I’d suggest changed would be the movies to watch. The rest was great and was absolutely free.

I just downloaded this app yesterday. Tubi is pretty cool for it being free, however there is one major issue that they have that others have noticed as well: not all of the items that you place in your queue are accessible from your queue and they go missing from your list if you scroll through it. This cannot be because they removed the title from this app, since I have had this account for less than 24 hours. But, although a show doesn’t show up in your queue, it will be checked off as being in your queue if you scroll for the title on the homepage or search for it. For example, It says that 3rd Rock from The Sun is on this app and in my queue if it appears as a featured title on the home screen and I click on the title for more details. However, once I click on the button to view my queue, it does not show up at all. It has done this to more than one title.

I love Tubi. Use it almost daily! I’m ok with the queue having to be accessed from the search area, rather it be back on the main screen but no big. Problem I do have, the shows I watch, they used to show I watched the episodes with a red line. But they are all gone, it doesn’t pick up where I left off anymore, so I have to remember where I left off. Not a huge deal, but a time waster... I’ll still use Tubi . I’ll just try to watch an entire movie or complete episode before turning it off. But if that feature can be fixed... 8 stars... this is a very good app. Commercials are short, depends you may only get 1, you might get 3. But it’s better than television!! And if you’re a horror fan, or a cult film buff, this is also definitely for you. There’s also a great selection of other stuff too, can’t say enough good about Tubi, and there’s not a lot of bad to say about it either!

Great for finding shows that are hard to find and not a lot of apps or companies have to offer, but still has a lot of big name shows and great titles. Allows you to make your own account, despite being free, you can add shows to your queue so you won’t forget to watch it, and can click “Resume playing” on shows you have been watching, just like any other tv provider. This is a great app, highly recommended. As expected, only drawback is small adds which don’t take up much time, usually only 20-40 seconds of adds and most you can skip through. I don’t mind the add part though, because Tubi is so great, that I am glad they are getting payed to have adds. One thing to add is that watching foreign films or anime, every nee episode you have to click closed captioning or subtitles again, which isn’t much of a hassle and will most likely be fixed in the future.

My sister and I were discussing various streaming services a few months ago when we happened upon “TubiTv”. This is a sweet little known gem of a service that is sorely underrated. Most everyone knows about the pay for play streaming services but very few are aware of this app. I have found many unique and comically quirky movies, some so hilarious that they command you watch until the end.

The secret to TubiTv is its most amazing way that it is delivered to viewers. The cost is $0.00 for as many movies as you can watch. The only time that your viewing is interrupted is for 3-5 ads that last for a mere 30 seconds. Most people want non-interrupted TV viewing but as far as I am concerned the ads are but a minor intrusion.

Give this app a try, I don’t believe that you will be disappointed. Look in your App Store and download this app, I hope that you find it as interesting as I have.

This has become my go-to app for movies when I can’t quite figure out what I am in the mood to watch. I love horror movies and have membership on shudder but honestly, wish I had known about Tubi earlier. Not only is it a free service you guys have quite an....eclectic selection. Have even caught a couple foreign films I’ve really enjoyed. Are there commercials? Yes but I don’t seem to really notice them. Because I am watching a FREE movie. I kept waiting for the membership requests/requirement to show up, I was thrilled when I found out they would never arrive. I’ve recommended to coworkers who are enjoying Tubi as much as I am. Knock on wood I’ve never had any technical issues with Tubi , it was even an app I could install on my several years old tv. Please don’t change - you’re perfect just the way you are!!

I stumbled upon Tubi awhile ago while trying to find a place to watch Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 3 and up. While researching, Tubi showed up.
After about a day or so the quality of Tubi was clear. For being a free streaming service the amount of ads is less than expected. The quality is great and Tubi is fairly easy to navigate.
The main reason I’ve decided to write this review however is due to the customer service. About 3 or 4 days ago the button to turn on subtitles no longer appeared, and I couldn’t figure out how to fix this. Running out of options I sent an email seeking help and quickly received an email saying that they would work on the issue. In 2 days the issue was fully resolved and its worked fine since. I’d highly recommend Tubi!

The quality is great when they have shows you are interested in and want to watch. I love that they have kitchen nightmares, hell’s kitchen, and hoarders and this is the best place to watch them but I wish there were some more movies and shows that are decently popular. I also understand that it is a completely free app though and that is amazing and would rather keep it that way if it means not having the best selection. You can add what you are interested in watching to your list and Tubi keeps track of the part you watch up to. A suggestion I have would be to make the forward and backward skip buttons more smooth because they take away the UI when you push them once and it makes skipping jarring. All in all it is a great app if they happen to have something you want to watch.

I love it so far free long you got wi fi less add very clear and pictures go movies the onl thing skip in out here in three blue mood like that to be better just few shows it free not big. Deal we’ll pay for wi fi steam it but well worth it so please everone try it out love the movie and shows choices there a lot enjoy lots good movies new and old free long you got wi fi it dose skip pause at time but other then that I love it try it out everone not bad at allway better somes apps I try its free just make sure you in wi -fi eat you dated on your phone frist time got at&t plan with my apple I phone 4 you tube ate me alive watching hallmark no wi - rock save on your phone time it’s like $33 if you get the cheapest only use it at home out in your yard so far home most of the time not buy phone time since but try it out enjoy thank alicia hoke

Guys, I know you probably just searched in Tubi store "watch free movies," tried a bunch of apps, realized they were all horrible, glitchy, or fake, and then came back and saw this one. You probably think these reviews are by the developer as most of the other ones on different apps probably are, but they're not! Tubi is highly rated for a reason. It's good quality and has interesting shows and movies. I love the way it's set up and it's super user friendly! You can totally trust Tubi and I promise you won't be let down. this app TV is amazing! P.S. Yes, it does have "commercial breaks" here and there but not very often and it's nothing that should annoy the average user. (By the way, I tend to get around said "commercial breaks" by clicking the back button to go back to the movie overview and when I go back into the movie the ad is gone!) And, if my review name is weird, I apologize as I made it back in about 4th grade and haven't figured out how to change it since😂

Now I must admit I love Netflix it has everything I want coming out, butyou immediately get bored and not knowing watch to after. However, this app has some of the old shows I love. There are some shows that I’ve been looking all over for, that are free and it was just on this app the whole time...like whoa. I literally watch this app all day now. Though it may not have what Netflix has, it is a good source of entertainment and possibly even Better. Yes, it has ads but the ads aren’t over the top and per ad break(which there isn’t a lot) three ads tops. I have a new found love for 80-90s movies and this app overall is great. You should definitely download. You won’t regret:)
And also the recommendations as you watch more shows/movies are spot on and the shows you can find are endless.
❤️👍❤️❤️💯

I was having trouble getting Tubi to work. I deleted the app and reinstalled. Came back with no problem, except things that I wanted to continue watching were gone.

You people need to fix your ap it isnt fair that people cant watch anything! Cant get past the first ad!

No sound???

my movie will not resume, why?
